    Putting it simply, Grant stuffs up his chances, Ayce doesn't have a chance.
    Agreed, we have to stick with Grant for the balance of the season if we can and see if we can make a forward line of Jones, Grant and Stringer work.

      We look more dangerous and have more option with Grant in there. But kick a goal mate.

      Stringer for Dicko would help too..

        Surprise surprise....Picken blazes out of defence.
        I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

          We could've taken the mark and possibly gone for a score, he had to make a contest. If one of ours had done the same, no one would've said anything.

          Grant has been ok but he needs to do more than "Ok" to keep his job, and he should have two or three to his name.

            ....and then Rioli makes Picken panic.

              Getting smashed now. Wallis had a couple of chances to influence the play but missed tackles.

                S**t. Really dissapointing now. All of sudden 41 points.

                  C'mon Grant. Must get it.

                    Well done Grant. Keeps his job? Amazing pass by Griff.

                      Our Roughhead has had a good day.

                      Hunter looks good, smart and clean.

                      Grant? Yay. As Rocco said, the fact that he has had a number of shots is an improvement.

                        I see three gettable shots on goal as a positive. Yes he missed them, but getting shots on goal is a fairly important step in the process of scoring. Plus he has linked up in the middle and just kicked one

                          Will's looked slower than usual today. Long season when you ruck 98%.

                            He has done today what Ayce would do in two games.

                              Yep, his last month has been poor.. showing the signs of a long season... Might need a spell if we are going to continue to play with just 1 ruck.

                                We bust our rings for zero return. Most exhaustive style of footy for so little reward.
                                Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
